Description

Description:Raccoons are bear-like mammals that were once exclusively found in North America but now live in Japan and Europe as well. They have what appears to be a black mask surrounding their eyes. Their front paws are so dexterous that they can turn door knobs, untie knots, and open jars.

Description:Mexican Prairie dogs live only in the grassland valleys of Mexico. They have mouse-like ears and blunt noses, and usually develop and thicken their fur during winter. Their large auditory glands can pick up sounds ranging from 29 to 26,000 Hz.
